They honestly don't even deserve one star, let alone a fraction of one.

They honestly don't even deserve one star, let alone a fraction of one. They are a rip-off. I've tried contacting them via chat 6 times, and they always promise to email me back about my $29.95 refund that they charged unlawfully. I've dialed their number 10 times, and it only gives you the choice to 1) Cancel your subscription or 2) Request a refund. If you choose 1, it cuts you off immediately, and if you choose 2, it tells you to hold and then hangs up after a minute and a half. The chat responses were just repeats. This situation is unacceptable. I agreed to a $1 report that provided no useful information about the vehicle I was interested in. It was supposed to cancel before the trial ended but didn't, charging my card $29.95, and now getting my money back seems nearly impossible. I'm at a loss and struggling financially, and this has made it worse.

Money distortion company

RUN FROM THESE GUYS. They trick you into paying $1 for a vehicle history, but in fine print they sign you up for a biweekly subscription charge of $29.95, and you can't do anything about getting your money back, because you didn't read the fine print. Completely unlegittimate company. They should be fined and shut down for tricking people into paying against peoples will. I just happened to check my account in time and noticed one charge that I didn't recognized. Other people got ripped off multiple times. And canceling their illusive subscription is a huge run around. I wasted an hour trying to cancel the subscription. Had to request my PayPal account to block them from distorting anymore money from me.

This company provides a vehicle

This company provides a vehicle history report service via vinhistoryusa.com. Even if you cancel their service right away, they persistently attempt to charge your account. They've made these attempts for three consecutive months! (The charge appears as PERSONALREPORTS on your bank statement.) Despite numerous calls and emails to cancel the service, they persist in trying to charge my card. (Despite them claiming it was canceled months ago!) It's best to steer clear of this company. One can only wonder how they continue to operate with these fraudulent charges! How do they remain in business?!?!

This site is a rip-off. The reports gave no useful info

This site is a rip-off. The reports gave no useful info. It showed "no record found" for things you could easily find with a quick Google search. They also promote a 1 dollar fee for a report, but the tiny print reveals it enrolls you in a 7-day trial subscription, then bills you 29.95 a month. Steer clear of these fraudsters.

As a customer, I was

As a customer, I was disappointed with my experience with this company. Despite reaching out for answers, I didn't receive the assistance I needed. This lack of satisfactory support has left me feeling unsatisfied and frustrated with the company's customer service.

I bought a report for a 2016 Chevy

I bought a report for a 2016 Chevy Cruze my niece was buying from someone in Montana. It said the car was repossesed two weeks ago and was reported in Virginia! The guy said he got it as a trade-in! This report stopped her from making a mistake that could've cost her $6k! I checked CarFax too, it's legit! I'll come back next time we need a car. Thanks, VinHistoryUSA!

I’m searching to import a car from USA

I’m searching to import a car from USA, and I found a car that fits my budget. I ran the vin through vin history USA website, and found out crucial information that had been witheld by the dealer, saving me thousands of dollars and a huge headache. Much appreciation all the way from Saudi Arabia.

Very cheap for everyone, anyone who

Very cheap for everyone, anyone who buys a car or has bought one. I needed this recall info and owner history to make smarter choices about my current car. If I’d known earlier, I might have gotten a better match for me! Thanks a lot for your help!!!

Mr. Carter is a good salesman.

Mr. Carter is a good salesman. He works with the team to make sure you get what he promises. Some dealerships say one thing but do something completely different. I appreciate their help; they were all nice.

Mr. Carter is a good salesperson. He collaborates with his team to deliver on his promises. Some car dealerships promise one thing but do the opposite. I appreciate their friendliness.

Fast and simple!

It really helped me a lot. I was happy to find out that what I was buying wasn't exactly what they said! Saved me from a big headache! I wish I knew about this much sooner!

The company is very affordable to anyone

The company is very affordable to anyone, whether you're buying a car or already have one. I needed to know about recalls and owner history to make better decisions about my car. If I had known sooner, I might have bought a better fit for me! Thank you so much for your service!!!

This company is ok.

This company is ok. They gave me some info I didn't know and might not have bought the car otherwise. It knew a lot about my SUV! For just $1...

The process was quite fast and simple.

The process was quite fast and simple. It provided the information quickly, which was helpful. But, it's not completly free like they advertise.

The service was quick and smooth, with no problems on my end. I’d use it again without hesitaton. Just thought I’d let everyone know.

The initial dollar is for the "report,"

The initial dollar is for the "report," but it doesn't cover the full report. You need to pay an additional $9-10 for the complete version. They also charge for basic actions like downloading as a PDF. The total comes to about $12 for one report.

I recently decided to try out VINHISTORYUSA

I recently decided to try out VINHISTORYUSA to get some background info on a used car I bought, since their trial deal was just $1. Unfortunately, I found out that the company has several ways to raise the total price of their services. Although the first fee is only $1, you end up paying more for each specific request, like previous owner info, accident history, manufacturer details, and where the car has been registered or driven. Each of these can add an extra fee, which can range from $1 to about $5, making the total costs go up quickly and surpass the advertised $1 trial. Plus, if you ask for information that you already paid for, you'll get charged again. It wasn’t hard to cancel my membership, and I was glad I used a Visa cash card with just $7 left, which helped limit what I could be charged. This experience was a reminder to carefully check out companies that offer online services, as hidden fees can add up fast. So, it’s wise not to assume that all services are included in the initial trial fee.

Avoid this website at all costs!

You think you’re paying just $1, but nowhere does it mention you’ll be signed up for a subscription. Next thing you know, there’s an unexpected charge, and when you try to cancel, their system suddenly has an "error." From that point, you just get passed around with no help. After a while, when you finally get to speak to someone, the 7 days have passed, and they’ve got you stuck. I talked to a customer service agent who told me I didn’t understand how to count the days and then hung up on me. When I tried calling back, nobody answered, and it said the person you’re trying to reach isn’t available before disconnecting you. Seriously, stay away from this service or website!

Rip off!!! I'd give this site minus 100 if I could!

Rip off!!! I'd give this site minus 100 if I could! Tried gettin the report, got billed just like they said, BUT they also slapped on a $29.95 fee for some subscription we didnt sign up for. You say yes to one thing and boom—you're charged more! Avoid this place! No reply when you try to contact. Then finaly get an email and they tell you to check the first one—which is nowhere. Looked in mine and my husband's inbox and it's not there. I called, and big suprise—no money back!!! Don’t fall for it!!!!

Disappointing company.

Disappointing company. As some have mentioned, they charge you a dollar for no reason, and before you know it, they try to take $29.95 every month. I attempted to cancel, and it appeared to go through, but I still get notifications from my bank's fraud team that they keep attempting to charge me. I've already denied the payment once, and my bank keeps rejecting it. It seems like there's absolutely no way to cancel once you've completed the initial cancellation.

TOTAL RIPOFF!

TOTAL RIPOFF! Paid for a $1 bin report but got details that had nothin to do with my car AND then got billed 3 times the price. A week later, another $29.95 gone. When I called to cancle, all they did was ask for my card number again. TOTAL RIPOFF. They ignore emails and don’t do what they say about refunds or canceling. I’m telling every agency I can. This site shoud be shut down!

Paid for what i got

Site said 1$ for full vin report. Didn't say I'd be able to read it without paying more money. Full vin report. But in order to read it have to pay for each option. Next time read reviews before ASSuming. Pissed but got what i paid for, them to run the report. 🤣

Worst site ever and they cheat!

Worst site ever and they cheat! You get put in a subscription without knowing when you ask for a vin check for $1. I called support two times, both were very unfriendly and didnt let me talk to a boss! Worst site and I would not sugest!

BIG RIP-OFF BE CAREFUL THEY ADVERTISE

BIG RIP-OFF BE CAREFUL THEY ADVERTISE $1 THEN THEY TOOK $1 TWICE, THEN THEY CHARGED ME $29.95 AND WHEN I CALLED THEM THEY JUST HUNG UP, IT ALSO GOES BY OTHER NAMES

This has been a really bad experience.

This has been a really bad experience. I’ve tried to cancel many times by email but they still keep charging my card every month.
